too many pictures!

At the rate I'm posting these days my kids will be in college before you see the pics on my camera! So here are the rest of the batch I took off almost a month ago!!

As far as updates go, we're still not getting a ton of sleep around here - this boy is just too hungry! But Natalie is napping again, and Jackson is on a nap schedule so that is giving me a bit of regular peace and quiet at least, (perhaps to blog?!)

So onto the photo catch up...

Bath time for J-Town...

Posy-Bath for Natertito.
Cuddles, (so this shot was way forced, but lately N interacts a lot more with J... she is beginning to appreciate the extra attention he offers her - he LOVES to watch her now and she likes to make him smile.)
Scott Carpenter Park in Boulder.
This hat will probably be making another appearance in the Summer time.
We are finally getting away from this! Maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel...
This is how Natalie smiles now, (and why there are so many fewer pictures of her.)
Shiva Rea.
We haven't gotten much precip this Winter... but just enough to make this snowman... he topped about 18 inches... with the hat.
It was sunny enough to go to the park that day though!
Too Sunny for Jackson to stick his head out of his hole.
Natalie eating the sprinkles off the cookies at the Valentine's Day Party.
This bump is still there a bit!


Sushi... this is one of the last times we ate out with both kids... we are entering a dark period in that regard...

Waiting for me at the dentist's office... playing iPhone games.

Out for a walk... this has become almost a daily occurrence...
Natalie is becoming quite the cyclist!
And Jackson really likes his excersaucer... excellent...
Hanging with his friend Jack... one month younger than him. Now all of the women in playgroup have had their second babies, (all boys but one). Jackson is the oldest.
Lunch at the rec center, (both of these women have since had babies).
And that's it! Phew. I'm afraid to even look at my camera! There will be more to come!

ice skating

This winter we tried something new! Ice skating rinks have been popping up at the local outdoor malls and we did it twice... or Natalie did. At both places they let me go with my shoes on. Thank goodness because Natalie doesn't quite have the skill set to be a real ice skater yet! Maybe next year.

Here she is the first time checking out the strap-on skates.

And sporting the sweater that was mine when I was little!
There was one other skater on the rink who acted as both photographer and skating inspiration for Natalie.
Taking a little break. Note the stroller in the background where Jackson lies cooperatively sleeping.
Another night we headed to Pearl street to get in some more skating before the rink there closed for the season. They had real little skates in Natalie's size there!!
Jackson was awake for most of this trip.
Natalie did not want to leave but our backs were getting a bit tired after helping her around the rink that we had to call it a day after about an hour and a half!
